These smashed sweet potatoes with roasted grapes are a quick dinner favorite of mine! The roasted grapes add an interesting texture to compliment the crispy yet soft sweet potato, as well as a sweet yet salty taste. If you’re not a bit sweet potato lover, you can try this same recipe with white potatoes. They’ll be just as deliciously cheesy and full of flavor!
MEAL PREP TIP: Make as many of these sweet potatoes as you want to have for meals throughout the week. Add toppings when ready to eat.
There's nothing more savory than our Blueberry Grilled Cheese. This innovative grilled cheese takes brings your standard grilled cheese up a notch with fresh berries, white cheese, goat cheese, and arugula. This grilled cheese is fully customizable; swap out the goat cheese and white cheese for your favorite kind and use strawberries instead of blueberries. Either way, the mix of slightly sweet and salty is absolutely scrumptious and we are sure you will fall in love with this grilled cheese!
MAKE AHEAD TIP: Halve the blueberries in advance so you can just put the sandwich together when you are ready to eat.
This fruity twist on curry is everything you need for dinner this week! Our Banana Thai Curry is savory, filling, and satisfying. Made similarly to traditional curry with curry paste, coconut milk, snap peas, and served on top of rice, you’ll love this tasty change by adding caramelized banana to it. The banana balances the salty spiciness of the curry, so you will absolutely love indulging in this curry dish!
PREP TIP: Chop up all produce when you have time so all you have to do is cook everything when you are ready.
Our Lemon Basil Risotto is sure to brighten up your Thursday. It can be a side dish or main course and it has a delicious, zingy, and tangy flavor that you will definitely enjoy. This dish is ultra creamy and cheese and made with tons of veggies, so it’s sure to fill you up. A little bit of this risotto goes a long way, making it perfect for any gathering.
MEAL PREP TIP: Make enough of this tasty dish to have throughout the week when you are craving the tangy dish.
Try our Roasted Grape Pizza for a change of pace on this pizza Friday. Packed with delicious Italian seasonings, savory roasted grapes and three types of creamy, gooey cheese, this pizza will become a favorite of yours. For this recipe, we add ricotta cheese, along with parmesan and mozzarella, making this pizza quite special. You can customize the fruit you add to the pizza. Add pineapple or even apples, but adding roasted grapes just add a delicious flavor and texture that we are sure you’ll love.
MEAL PREP TIP: Make an extra pie if needed for meals throughout the weekend.
